About this map

Occoneechee Mountain and the nearby Panthers Den anchor the western edge of this landscape, where the Eno River winds past the historic core of Hillsborough. The 2010 survey shows a complex interface of old agricultural land and modern residential growth, from the established neighborhood of West Hillsborough to newer developments like Cornwallis Hills and Jappa Oaks.

Evidence of the area's industrial and civic history is scattered throughout the terrain, including Dimmocks Mill and the County Subsidiary Prison Number 056. Genealogists will find several burial grounds such as Mars Hill Cemetery and Maplewood Cemetery. The map also captures the local water infrastructure, featuring the Infinity Rd Raw Water Reservoir and numerous small impoundments like Strayhorn Pond and the Falls of New Hope.
